Introduction

Agile development principles have gone from something used only by cutting-edge teams to a mainstream approach used by teams large and small for things as varied as the following:

  • Startup software development projects
  • Enterprise-sized development efforts
  • Complex, large-scale systems engineering initiatives (such as the electronics in the cars you drive and the airplanes you fly in)
  • Legacy systems (which means systems that have been around for a while, such as mainframe)
  • Embedded, real-time systems (such as pacemakers or life-support systems)
  • High-compliance environments (such as healthcare, insurance, or banking)
